Blinken urges investment at home to compete with China

Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Monday that the United States needed to invest more at home to compete with rivals led by China, casting "domestic renewal" as key to foreign policy.

Blinken toured an engineering laboratory at the University of Maryland on the outskirts of Washington where noisy 3D printers churned out prototypes for new products. "Nothing would put to rest faster their specious argument about America's best days being behind us than if the United States made serious investments in our domestic renewal right now," he said.

Blinken described China -- identified by the Biden administration as the pre-eminent long-term challenge of the United States -- as a "rising power" but said that challenges on competitiveness came from multiple countries.

Stealing President Trump's idea I see.

It's not a matter of one party, it's country's economy solution; if the USA wants the hegemony; technology will make the difference. The infrastructure must be created to get there. The new silicon valley will be back. AI, robotics, electric cars and clouds and more.

Don’t look now but that sounds a lot like Trump’s let’s make America great again.
